Flight attendants make less than I do on first year pay, I wouldn't recommend the route if you want to be a pilot.

Go get a job using your degree, pay off your loan and pay for your flight training. It'll take a few extra years, but just roll with it. I started flying when I was 16 and didn't actually get a job flying airplanes for a living until I was 23 and I'm glad that it worked out that way. It gave me time to do indoor, enjoy college, blah blah blah.
